I have the pearl grey one so you should definitely get it eventually. It's gorgeous and versatile and looks great with the silver hardware. I agree with you on the micro studded, pretty but not my thing either.

That's exactly what I want and having seen pearl grey IRL for the first time it is gorgeous and I don't think it would look as nice with ghw. It is one of those colours that for me it is shw or nothing. I was gutted as I just fell in love with the back view and of course am not envious of you at all (I AM LOL.)

Saw a dark dune large at my MK store and a medium at Macy's and for some reason I really like the medium better in this color. I have a large pearl grey and medium fuschia so I like both sizes. Ironically I usually prefer the medium in brighter colors but not this time. I need to carry my medium fuschia to make sure that size works well for me before buying another though.

I normally like dark dune (a neutral) on larger bags, too, but the medium looks really good on you. I like dark dune with extra hardware, so didn't like the color as much on the Selma. But in the smaller size I think it works. :smile1:

I prefer medium myself. I only got the large navy because it was an amazing deal recently at Macy's. Medium navy wasn't on sale at all :sad:

Yes ubo22, I agree that it works for some reason in the smaller size. I really like it on the EW Hamilton too because of all the hardware, but not a fan of that particular bag. I like the NS better but it's too big for me. Hoping to see it in the medium sutton!

Paula, I heard Macy's was having their Shop for a Cause thing at the end of the month (the one where you buy the pass early then can use it later) and they have the medium Selma in navy. Maybe you could exchange your large then if you like medium better!

I wonder who here has the most Selma's? Lol. I know it's not me but I'm curious. I have three mediums, but trying to sell one of them and I have one large. How about you?

I'm almost certain that the title for most Selmas would go to "Live It Up". She posted a picture in the Selma thread about a year ago with a closet full of about 15 large Selmas. Pure eye candy.....:love:

I have 3, 2 large and one medium.....:smile1:

Not me but I am getting there! I have a large Red with shw (this was my first kors,) large deep pink with shw, large gooseberry with ghw, large orange with ghw and finally a medium in electric blue with shw. I've also got a large Sophie in navy with she and a medium messenger Sophie in surf with shw really are slouchy Selma's so definately sisters.)

I remember someone putting up a photo a while ago and she had loads and loads and loads. It was an amazing collection with some beautiful colours.

I think this qualifies as the most. I personally counted 27 Selma's in different colors. Check out post 8981 & 8982.....:smile1:

I just got my first Selma the other day! I love it so much but it's killing my shoulder from wearing it :( Has anyone else had this issue? I have the medium satchel in saffiano leather. It's not stuffed or anything, just regular handbag contents. I was wearing a tank top too. The strap is so rough it feels like it's rubbing/digging into my skin. I am a sad panda :(

Do sorry to hear that! You can carry by the handle or return it for a soft leather bag like the traveler. Or maybe a messenger one is lighter. When I first carry my mk bag it pulled forward or something because of the weight and I actually fell forward. I thought it was bad luck but now I got used to it.

Oh no what a shame. Have you tried it with a sleeved top, does it feel any different?

I rarely use the shoulder straps on my satchels as they can be quite heavy with all my work gear stuffed in. When heavy I tend to use the handles. But if you are intending to use mainly as a shoulder bag have you considered the messenger? Or do you want the option of either or?

Hi all, I purchased my second Selma last night, a large Selma in Luggage. I wasn't really looking for this particular bag, but when I walked into Lord & Taylor's, there it was on the clearance table for 25/40% off the original price. Total came to $171.00 with tax! I couldn't believe it. Many dept. stores are having sales now, but most are for bags in summery colors, and I really wanted something more for fall/winter.
So, I'm very happy that I found this bag at such an amazing price! :smile1:

Great deal on that one. You couldn't have done better on that price. The luggage Selma is a great pick, too, because you'll be able to use it year-round. It was the first Selma color I ever purchased and the most versatile of the three Selmas I own. :smile1:

My only complaint with the Selma is the shoulder strap. It could be a teeny bit wider and more comfortable. I can understand how it would hurt your shoulder when wearing a tank top. I would never try to carry it by the shoulder strap on bare skin!!! :nogood:
